CHAPTER vi.
LADY CASlPION.

Three weeks or a month passed so. Had
l lived much longer in this loneliness-for
/ spoke to no one, not even to the faithful
old woman who took care did not starve
I think | should have gone mad with
much brOOding. But there came an end.
1t was on sunny forenoon in NOvem-
Der. | was thinking how it must be out
at sea for Dan and the boys, and wonder
ing whether Will thought of me as much
as thought Of him, and trying TO bring
back to my mind his handsome face and
laughing eyes, when | saw a most unac-
custOmed sight. There came along the
lane, riding slowly, because the road was
rough, a gentleman dressed in an immense
cloak with fur collar, buckled at the
neck. He was a middle aged man, per
haps turned fifty, and of grave aspect
Behind him rode two servants, each of
whom carried at the back of his saddle
small leathern trunk.
The gentleman looked about him curl
ously. The place, left now to the charge
of the two old people, was already Begin
ming to show signs Of neglect l sat in
the porch, half hidden by the great fuch-
STA tree He seemed to be looking for
some one to speak to. The servants rode
up to him, and they all then consulted.
"There is no other house but this in the
place. 1t must be Gulliver's Farm"
merged from the porch, and went to
ask Of whom the gentleman was in search.
He took off his hat politely.
''You are Miss Pleasance NoelP' he
asked.
Eyes, sir; am Pleasance."
1t was SO seldom that heard my sur
name that had almost forgotten its ex-
istence.
"You are the young lady of whom 1 am
in search. You are "a friend, l believe,
of Mr.. William Campion, son of the late
Sir Godfrey Campion."
"He is my sweetheart" replied.
Then the gentleman smiled, dismounted
and gave the reins to one of the servants.
Il am John Huntspill," he said. ~

firm; am travelling for the house in the
southern counties. l am also, l may
boast, in the confidence of Mr.. William.
May l, therefore, beg the honor Of pri-
vate interview with your
This was very imposing. He'd the way
into the house and begged him to be
seated at the same time l offered him n
glass of brandy, assuring him, In the
words Of Dan CULVER, that it was right
good brandy, which had never paid duty.
In my girlish ignorance, conceived that
the payment CT duty inflicted some griev-
Gus damage to the character Of brandy;
also, thought that everybody in polite
society offered everybody else glasses of
raw spirit.

'Now, mate" said one of the men, 'you
come quiet, or We'll make you that quiet
as you'll never want to sing no more"
All the rest growled acquiesence. They
lad had enough of fighting for that bout.
But what's all thisy" The leader
pointed TO the kegs, three or four of which
Joshua had already brought out and laid
upon the grass.

The men looked at one another.

out the gimlet and bored hole Joshua
shook his head cheerfully. No doubt

"Never a pannikin be there, mate?"
the man asked his prisoner.
Joshua shook his head
Then laughed to myself; for the man
who bored the hole lifted the keg and
poured what he thought was brandy into
his open mouth.

manner.

Joshua, despairing.
Then he sat down, saying no more,
while the men tried the other kegs with
the same result. They all contained sea
water.
Got any more, mate?' asked one OF
them, looking around.
There's dozen more behind that
blackberry BUSH, said Joshua with the
calmness of complete despair
They searched; they lugged them all
out; they bored the gimlet into every one.
Not one single drop of brandy in any.
"This here" said one, els a most amaZ-
ing gol What was you agoing to do with
they kegs, mate2"
"Sell them," said Joshua.
"Was you agoing to sell them for
brandy, or was you agoing to sell them
for bilge waterY'
"They were full of brandy three weeks
ago." repeated Joshua. THAT is all
know"
They looked at each other in amaze
ment. Then the leader gave the word as
if nothing unusual had happened:
Fall in, men. Marchr'
Just then l stepped from my hiding
place-the daylight was pretty clear then
and ran up over the rocks so as to meet
them higher up on the road. That looked
as if might have been awakened by the
noise of the fight and came out to see
what it was.
''Pleasance," cried Joshua, this is lucky.
Tell these men-it is a press gang-they
have pressed me--me-a simple miller and
not sailor at all-ten them they have no
right
''Oh, Joshua, joshua" 1 said, ''this is
very sad. Won't you let him go, gentle.
men? This is a dreadful misfortune. And
all the brandy spilled? Dear mel Oh, do
let him go. He is not regular sailor;
indeed, gentlemen, indeed he is not,
though he is so handy aboard that he will
surprise you. Do let him go-do. He knows
every inch of the French coast, but you
must not press him. He is the best boat

is a miller. Oh, he is much too good q

VERY NERVOUS.

For many years i have been afflicted with
rheumatism combined with some Kidney
Troubles. Indigestion finally added to my
misery and ! soon became feeble and very
nervous, and my whole system was pros
trated. Several physicians were employed
and numerous patent medicines rCsOrted to
without benefit. After seeing SO many test-
monials extOllng the wonderful merit of b.
IL. H., commenced its USE and the effect was
like magic. Rheumatic pain ceased, my KID
